      <div class="helptext"><pre><!--helptext -->  <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> - Base class for many PRT components.
  
   <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> is an abstract class and cannot be instantiated.
 
    Classification, regression and feature selection techniques are all
    sub-classes of <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span>.
 
    All <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> objects have the following properties:
 
    name                 - Descriptive name for <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> object
    nameAbbreviation     - Shortened name for <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> object
    isTrained            - Indicates whether the current <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> 
                           object has been trained                          
    isCrossValidateValid - Flag indicating whether or not
                           cross-validation is a valid operation on 
                           this <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> object
    verboseStorage       - Flag to allow or disallow verbose storage
    dataSetSummary       - A struct, set during training, containing
                           information about the training data set
    dataSet              - A prtDataSet, containing the training data,
                           only used if verboseStorage is true
    userData             - A struct containing user-specified data
 
    All <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> objects have the following methods:
 
    train             - Train the <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> object using a prtDataSet
    run               - Evaluate the <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> object on a prtDataSet
    runOnTrainingData - Evaluate the <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> object on a prtDataSet
                        during training prior to training of other
                        prtActions within a prtAlgorithm
    crossValidate     - Cross-validate the <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> object using a 
                        labeled prtDataSet and cross-validation keys
    kfolds            - K-folds cross-validate the <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> object
                        using a labeled prtDataSet
    optimize          - Optimize the <span class="helptopic">prtAction</span> for a specified
                        parameter</pre></div><!--after help --><!--seeAlso--><div class="footerlinktitle">See Also</div><div class="footerlink"> <a href="./../prtAction/train.html">prtAction/train</a>, <a href="./../prtAction/run.html">prtAction/run</a>, <a href="./../prtAction/crossValidate.html">prtAction/crossValidate</a>,
